I acknowledge this in the comment with an edit. To be fair, the Monero team only (as far as I could see) published an unofficial rebuttal as opposed to an official one with a request for correction. Surprised that the authors of the paper haven't issued a retraction/update of some form to explain its been fixed anywhere easily findable...

(I'm not one of the authors of that paper.)

As far as I know there's nothing incorrect in the paper that needs to be retracted.

You can see one of the authors of the paper — Andrew Miller — being interviewed by a journalist about it here: https://cointelegraph.com/news/monero-transactions-history-can-be-revealed-and-exposed-research The journalist specifically asks "Say I downloaded a Monero wallet right now and got some and tried to send them for a transaction. How linkable would a transaction be today?".

Since some people posted speculations about my company's involvement in the research and our motivations, our company posted this statement: https://forum.z.cash/t/on-improving-user-understanding-progressing-tech-with-science/15387
